| Size of Award | In October 2008, the Arizona Corporation Commission (ACC) adopted net metering rules which apply to all investor-owned electric utilities and cooperative utilities in the state. Under the statewide rules, net metering is available to customers who generate electricity using solar, wind, hydroelectric, geothermal, biomass, biogas, combined heat and power (CHP) or fuel cell technologies. The adopted net metering rules have been certified by the attorney general and took effect May 2009. Affected utilities will have 120 days to file their proposed net metering tariffs. The proposed tariffs must be approved by the Commission before they take effect. Net metering tariffs developed by APS and TEP remain in effect until the Commission approves new tariffs for each of those utilities. |

| Additional Information | The ACC did not set a firm kilowatt limit on system size capacity. Instead, systems must be sized to meet all or part of a customer's electric load in that the system may not exceed 125 percent of the customer's total connected load. Additionally, the ACC did not set an aggregate capacity limit for all net metered systems in a utility's territory. The utility must instead demonstrate to the ACC why such a cap should be allowed. |
